According to the report, Nunez will not play for Uruguay against Panama tonight – to allow him to fly to England to complete a move from Benfica to Liverpool.
The ECHO understand a fee is yet to be agreed between the two clubs, but Liverpool are hoping to secure a deal for a player who has emerged as their top summer target.
The Reds will not do anything at all costs and have Benfica’s asking price of a flat €100m (85.5m fixed fee with €20m (£17.1m) in add-ons.

Bayern Munich have spoken to Mane and manager Julian Nagelsmann had a positive phone call with the striker, according to new reports. Mane apparently made it clear that he only wants to switch to Bayern in the summer.

Mané has made it clear that he wants to #FCBayern! Bayern were impressed that Mané did it. “No airs and graces.” He made it clear that he would do his best in every position.
“He should become a massive leader in the team. Bosses hope that players like Coman and Sané can rise to another level alongside him. Negotiations are positive and ongoing. An agreement is very likely.”
